Bambu Lab Silicone Sock for H2S, H2D, Pack of 3

A workshop running a P2S alongside an H2D or H2S ends up with a small headache most single-printer owners never face, working out which spare parts are actually interchangeable and which only look like they are. Order the wrong hotend and you either waste money on something that will not perform as expected, or worse, fit a part that behaves differently from what the printer's firmware assumes.

This is the genuine Bambu Lab hotend, part number FAH060, hardened steel, 0.4mm, officially compatible with the P2S, H2S, and H2D. One certified part, correct across all three printers, with no guesswork about fit or thermal behaviour.

Genuine Bambu Lab part, FAH060 | Hardened steel 0.4mm nozzle | Compatible with P2S, H2S & H2D | Rated to 350°C, printer firmware sets the practical ceiling | Tool-free quick-swap | 49.2mm length | Factory-original fit

Who the Genuine Hotend is built for

The owner running a mixed P2S, H2D, or H2S fleet

Because FAH060 is officially compatible across all three printers, a workshop or small business does not need to track separate part numbers for each machine. One genuine hotend covers whichever printer needs a replacement first, simplifying both ordering and the spares you keep on the shelf.

The buyer who wants certainty on temperature behaviour

The physical hotend is rated to 350°C, but each printer's firmware sets its own practical ceiling, 300°C on the P2S and up to 350°C on the H2D and H2S. A genuine part behaves exactly as Bambu Lab intends on whichever printer it is fitted to, with no aftermarket variance to second-guess.

The small business standardising on certified parts

Where procurement or maintenance records need to show genuine components rather than approximate ones, this hotend carries Bambu Lab's own part number, FAH060, making it straightforward to specify, document, and reorder as part of a standard maintenance routine.

What sets the Genuine Hotend apart

A genuine part, not a substitute

This hotend carries Bambu Lab's own part number, FAH060, and is sourced through the same supply chain as the hotend fitted to new P2S, H2S, and H2D printers. Bore tolerance, thermal response, and hardware alignment are guaranteed to match the printer's calibration exactly, because nothing here is approximated.

One hotend, three printers, different temperature ceilings

The hotend itself is rated to withstand up to 350°C, but the printer it is installed in determines the temperature you can actually use. On the P2S, firmware caps the practical ceiling at 300°C. On the H2D and H2S, the same physical hotend can be driven up to the full 350°C. Understanding this distinction matters if you are moving a spare between printers in a mixed fleet.

Hardened steel matched to the factory specification

All three printers, P2S, H2D, and H2S, ship with hardened steel nozzles as standard equipment, and this hotend matches that specification exactly. It is not an upgrade over stock, it is a certified, like-for-like replacement built for engineering filaments from the ground up.

Tool-free quick-swap fitment

This hotend uses the same tool-free quick-swap design built into the P2S, H2D, and H2S toolheads, separating the thermal assembly from the electronics cleanly for fast servicing. It clips into your existing toolhead exactly where the factory hotend sat, with the fit and alignment you would expect from a genuine part.

The certified choice for 0.4mm engineering filament work

Bambu Lab's own testing shows PLA-CF and PETG-CF print with low clog risk through a genuine hardened 0.4mm nozzle, and for filaments containing carbon or glass fibre at higher volumes, a 0.6mm hardened nozzle is the recommended step up. Because this is the certified part, that testing applies directly, with no aftermarket variance in hardness or bore tolerance to account for.

How the Genuine Hotend compares to other H2/P2S options

Materials and software

Filaments this hotend handles

PLA and PETG print cleanly and benefit from the hardened tip's resistance to pigmented or filled variants. ABS and ASA suit the actively heated chambers of the H2 and P2 series well. PC and PA (Nylon) need the higher end of the available temperature range for proper layer bonding, up to 350°C on the H2D and H2S, or 300°C on the P2S. PLA-CF and PETG-CF print with low clog risk through this genuine hardened 0.4mm nozzle according to Bambu Lab's own testing, and for higher volumes of carbon or glass fibre filament, a 0.6mm hardened nozzle is the recommended step up. TPU prints comfortably at 220 to 230°C, with no particular benefit from the hardened tip since it is not abrasive.

Slicers and software

Bambu Studio is the native slicer across the P2S, H2D, and H2S, and because this is a genuine part, each printer's flow and pressure advance calibration behave exactly as expected once you confirm the nozzle settings on the touchscreen after installation. OrcaSlicer, a widely used fork built around Bambu hardware, and community profiles for PrusaSlicer and Cura all work identically with this hotend as they do with the factory original.

What's in the box

Ordering, shipping and support

This genuine Bambu Lab hotend ships nationwide across South Africa by courier from 3D Printing Store's Centurion and Boksburg locations, with installation guidance available through the store's technical support ticket system if you need it. It is covered under 3D Printing Store's standard warranty for genuine Bambu Lab parts, handled locally through their South African support team rather than an overseas RMA process. Filament, High Flow hotends, and other H2 and P2 series accessories are available from the same store.

Frequently asked questions

Does this hotend reach 350°C on every printer it fits?

No. The hotend itself is rated to 350°C, but the P2S's firmware caps the practical maximum at 300°C, while the H2D and H2S can drive it up to the full 350°C. The physical part is identical across all three, only the usable temperature range differs.

Can this hotend print PA-CF, PETG-CF, and other engineering filaments?

Yes. Bambu Lab's own testing shows PLA-CF and PETG-CF print with low clog risk through a genuine hardened 0.4mm nozzle. For higher volumes of carbon or glass fibre filament, a 0.6mm hardened nozzle is generally the safer choice.

How long does it take to install?

Most users complete the swap in under 10 minutes using the tool-free quick-swap toolhead design shared across the P2S, H2D, and H2S. No soldering is required, simply remove the old hotend and fit the new one, then confirm the correct settings in Bambu Studio or on the touchscreen.

Is this the Standard Flow or High Flow hotend?

This is the Standard hotend, built for detail-focused, everyday printing. Bambu Lab also offers a separate High Flow variant for large-volume, high-speed work, which trades some fine-detail performance for significantly higher throughput.

Does it come with a South African plug and local warranty support?

This is an internal printer component, not a mains-powered accessory, so it fits directly onto the toolhead with no separate plug required. It is backed by 3D Printing Store's local warranty support for genuine Bambu Lab parts, handled through their Centurion and Boksburg branches rather than an international claims process.
